QUEZADA-GARCIA, Roberto; JIMENEZ-SANCHEZ, Esteban; EQUIHUA-MARTINEZ, Armando y PADILLA-RAMIREZ, Jorge. Scolytinae and Platipodinae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) attracted to NTP-80 traps in Zapotitlán de las Salinas, Puebla, Mexico.. Acta Zool. Mex [online]. 2014, vol.30, n.3, pp.625-636. ISSN 2448-8445.
A study on Platypodinae and Scolytinae in a semi-arid area from Zapotitlán de las Salinas, Puebla, Mexico was done. Samples were taken monthly from April 1998 to March 1999 using NTP-80 carrion traps baited with squid. Conservative liquid composed of acetic acid and alcohol, served as attractant to these groups. The traps were distributed in five locations (columnar cacti, mezquite terraces, riparian mezquite, mezquite unfragmented and undisturbed vegetation). A total of 328 individuals of five species of Scolytinae and one of Platypodinae were collected. Premnobius cavipennis Eichhoff, 1878, Xyleborus posticus Eichhoff, 1869, Monarthrum pennatum Wood & Bright, 1992 and Euplatypus parallelus (Fabricius, 1801) are recorded for the first time for the state of Puebla. The greatest abundance and species richness of Curculionidae were observed on riparian mezquite, major abundance was observed at the end of the rainy season. Given the environmental degradation in the area, this study makes a contribution to the knowledge of Scolytinae and Platypodinae of Puebla, Mexico.
